Hotlinked content

Post by Isgrimnur »

I got some information about a site called teemagnet.com that's an aggregator of t-shirt daily deal sites. However, it appears that the teefury.com site that they link to is currently infested with malware, and Chrome gives me a nice little warning.

The reason I mention this is that I get the same warning when I attempt to browse to the last page of the 2 new shirts thread, as it appears that there is a hotlinked image or other content.

This post has a teefury image. There's also one on page 4 (the Admiral Akbar one).

I'm not sure that hotlinking a jpg is a threat? Is it?


Oh, I see that they also have a link to the site.

Even attempting to pull up the page of posts with it on them threw Chrome into a tizzy.

And of course, now, it lets me through to the page with no issues... :?
